Low trunk 80cm high - 5 litre pot. The Gieser Wildeman pear tree is known for its excellent flavour and firm fruits. This tree produces medium-sized, light green pears that turn golden when ripe and develop an aromatic, sweet-spicy flavour. The Gieser Wildeman is ideal for both fresh consumption and cooking. For healthy growth this tree needs a sunny spot and well-drained, fertile soil. Prune the tree annually in winter to maintain shape and improve yield. The Gieser Wildeman needs cross-pollination with other pear varieties for optimum fruit set, and it can tolerate cold well, making it suitable for temperate climates.

Low stem means that the tree is grafted onto a slow growing rootstock, which means that the trees bear fruit faster and grow less tall. The advantages of this are that they are suitable for smaller (vegetable) gardens, so that you can grow more varieties in the same space. It is also handy that you can harvest easily, safely and without a long ladder.

In the fall, the soil is still warm and moist, which means the trees will take root well in the soil. Plants that are planted in the fall have a better developed root system than plants that are planted in the spring. They will also grow better and can better withstand periods of drought. Because the trees are delivered in pots, they can be planted all year round.
